Chapter 1 Dead?

"We're here?" Hannibal's voice came from behind Ziliang.

Ziliang didn't say anything, he just looked at the countdown on the page and remained silent.

"What's wrong?"

Ziliang shook his head: "I don't know, the compass gave a countdown as soon as possible. This is very strange. Usually, it should match the world for a period of time before giving clues."

"Countdown? What's the countdown?" At this time, Harley Quinn walked over and asked immediately.

"The compass has no prompt." Ziliang responded: "But what can make it react so quickly is usually a big event."

“For example?”

"Earthquakes, wars, volcanic eruptions, asteroids hit the earth, continental shelf breaks, nuclear explosions, earth is penetrated with one punch, solar system is blown up, etc. Anyway, it's all things that we will definitely die here if we don't speed up." Ziliang said casually.

"Well, it's really good news, that is, we have successfully arrived in a city where we don't have to take action at all, right?" Quinn said leaning against the door frame.

Ziliang put the compass back into his pocket: "That's about it. No matter what, this time we can't wait for the compass to slowly scan this plane. We have to find what I'm looking for quickly."

"What are you looking for?"

"How do I know? I just know there is something here that will make the old man lying downstairs in the morgue come alive."

"This..." Hannibal seemed a little confused: "In other words, you don't know this plane, right?"

"Of course I don't know. Do you know how many planes there are in this world? If I can remember them all, what else should I do with a 'compass'..." Ziliang said with his eyes empty: "But don't worry too much. This city doesn't look that big. People in small cities should be very hospitality, so I just ask a resident and you should find clues soon."

"How do you know that this city is not big?" Quinn said with his head down, then looked at the small building next to him with a fire: "And I think... are the residents here a little too enthusiastic?"

Ziliang ignored Quinn's words directly: "It's easy, anyway, let's ask someone first."

As he said that, he scratched his messy hair and walked into the rain

......

......

The night in Raccoon City is much quieter than imagined. The wind in the middle of the night blew directly across the dim streets. When you pat your face, you could feel the obvious coldness. Ziliang and the other three walked on the street, as if it was difficult to hear other movements besides the sound of raindrops.

"What's wrong with this place." Quinn finally couldn't help but say it.

In fact, in the first few blocks, she was just a little surprised. But now they have walked three blocks, and this little surprise has long turned into a strong doubt.

Just now, the three of them walked past a bus stop. On the platform, there was a simple map. According to the minds of these three, they could only take a look and remember them. So at this moment, everyone has been sure that this "raccoon City" is indeed a small city... But Xiao Guixiao has not seen a single figure after walking for so long. Isn't this a bit too unreasonable?

For example, the street in front of you is called Beppy Street, which is a very spacious street leading to the city center. The nearby buildings are complete, with many coffee shops and popular restaurants on both sides, and several cinemas dedicated to the screening of horror movies and adult comedy. According to Harley Quinn's understanding, this place should be considered a very popular place among young people in Raccoon City.

But now, almost no lights are turned on on the shops and restaurants on this street - although several shops are still on, there are no one inside. There are many vehicles parked on both sides of the road, but none of them are starting, and there is not even a young man who is shaking the car.

"Well... Maybe there is some celebration here, which is to taste pasta for free, or a Beer Festival and other programs, so everyone went to participate." Ziliang kept looking around, muttering with his face.

"That's a big festival. They were so happy that they even ordered the house." Quinn said, "And don't you smell it? There seems to be a bad smell on the street."

No one spoke, and in this empty environment, there was a faint sense of anxiety...

At this time, the three of them passed by an alley.

Since Quinn was walking on the inside of the street, she subconsciously glanced into the alley, and then stopped.

......

"What's wrong?" Ziliang and Hannibal retreated in confusion, then looked into the alley

......Immediately afterwards, I was stunned.

This alley is very narrow, but there is still a street light that is flashing and dizzying. Under the light and shadow, there is a large dark shadow in the circle, and it looks like a huge vortex composed of leaves. After a closer look, it turns out that it is a group of crows. Although the crows are close, they cannot hear their chirping, and they can only hear the subtle sound of flapping their wings. They gather together, as if... they are enjoying something...

It's a corpse.

Moreover, it was a human corpse, and for the three of them, this would certainly not be wrong.

Although the deceased was lying down, it was still obvious that it was a woman. Judging from her blood-stained shirt, it was not the college student who had drunk too much beer and was napping in the middle of the road.

...The smell of stench in the cold air became clearer.

"Well, the security conditions in this city do not seem to be much better than the places I lived before." Quinn couldn't help but mutter.

Ziliang frowned, and he slowly walked towards the corpse. The crows seemed to have no concern about anyone approaching and continued to rush to eat their dinner wildly. It was not until Ziliang got a very close distance that they finally flapped their wings reluctantly and flew away.

Ziliang leaned down and looked at the corpse carefully...

The twill cotton-textured over-knee jeans and flats were still intact. Although the blood-stained shirt covered the body, there seemed to be more than a dozen wounds - the wet clothes had cracked, and the bloody muscles could be seen below.

With his breath, Ziliang reached out and touched the naked arm of the corpse. The cold and slippery touch suddenly spread to his whole body through his fingers. This kind of stiffness... obviously I have been dead for a long time...

Immediately afterwards, Ziliang turned the corpse over with force... The scene in front of him made him raise his eyebrows again.

The corpse's shirt was torn apart to reveal its spine and chest, and the sternum with some minced meat was bright red. The ribs that formed the charming curve of the woman were mixed with the torn and shattered internal organs. It was like being thrown to the ground with force and then...been bitten wildly.

The biting marks were definitely not caused by crows, because with their beaks, no matter how long it took, it would not cause such a result.

At this time... Hannibal came over.

"A corpse?" he asked faintly.

Ziliang shrugged his shoulders: "It's obvious that it's a corpse that has been bitten by something."

Under the light of light, Hannibal's eyes slightly passed the wound on the body...
